I thought I’d write you a note while I enjoy a
refreshing glass of water with lemon and an energizing bowl of fruit and
vanilla yogurt. It has been a while since I’ve expressed my gratitude to you,
the reader, my friends, hard working team of writers and all those that have
supported The SL Enquirer through the years. It has definitely been a journey,
one I have shared with you in the public eye. I just want you to know I am grateful
for each and every one of you for being there to motivate me to continue to do
what I love; creative writing, meeting people from all over the world, learning
from you all and being a part of some of your daily reading routines.

As I
approach my 8th Rezzday on May 9th, I can’t help but sit
back and reflect on the years gone by. It seemed like only yesterday that I was
waddling barefoot around the grid with no real direction, wearing silks and
constantly being approached by Goreans. I had no idea that what I was wearing
meant something to them. Things have
certainly changed from those times, readership has grown tremendously from the
monthly hits that are now equivalent to our daily hits, times two.

Every day when I wake up, gather my senses
and check my emails, it is like opening Christmas presents. There is something
new to tackle each day, a new person to meet, the most encouraging comments and
my friends and SLE family in Second Life ready to greet me. Living a Rock star
lifestyle isn’t so bad, but without you as my rock, I would not be a star. I
just wanted to express that to all of you. I wish you all well with whatever
dreams you have and encourage you to follow them. You never know that the path
you choose today will lead you in a whole new life changing direction tomorrow.
I certainly believe in dreams coming true. If you continue to strive for what
you want and do what you love, only good things can come of it, even in the
virtual world.
